lie in with you tangled on the couch reading separate books with the TV on mute.  I want my head to count your breaths as it rises and falls on your chest. I want you to make me wait until you finish the page you’re reading for me to steal a kiss.  When you are excitedly telling me the fascinating story from your day, I will make you repeat it because I got distracted merely by your presence. I want to wake up 4 hrs later in the same position with tingly extremities from a lack of circulation. I smile when you smile at me knowing it is endless.
